Summary
I am a creative optimist passionate about people and the technology that connects them. Solving problems and communication are in my blood. I have a quick grasp and enjoy analyzing processes and their workflows, then optimizing them through software or processes, acting as the link between customers and developers.
I welcome new challenges, acquire the necessary basic knowledge on my own, or exchange ideas with colleagues.
I'm interested in anything that challenges me, whether as a dedicated game master in our role-playing group, in computer games, or with movies, books, etc.
I love coffee and everything that comes with it, preferably: espresso, black.

Programming Languages: C#, Java, Php, Javascript, Typescript
Technologies & Frameworks: Asp.net, Entityframework, Mongoose, Vue.js, Angular, Tailwind, Express.js
Preferred Language Stack: C#
Preferred Frontend Stack: Blazor Or Vue.js
Preferred Backend Stack: Asp.net
Preferred Database Stack: Mongodb
Over The Years As A Software Developer, I Have Worked With Many Programming Languages And Technologies, And I Have Also Explored Some On My Own. I Always Come Back To C# And .Net Because I Like The Simplicity C# Offers. Vue.js Is The Most Pleasant Javascript Framework I Have Used So Far, And Blazor Is A Good Alternative If Vue.js Reaches Its Limits (Or If Webassembly Gets Stuck In Its Current Development Stage).
Mongodb Has Proven To Be The Most Natural Way To Structure Data In A Database. Not Only Rapid Prototyping, But Also Running In A Production Environment Has Shown Mongodb To Be A Competent Choice.
